Busted Head stud

hey guys
I have a GC Galant with a 4G32 motor in it, we were trying to replace the head gasket as it leaks, because it is over 30yrs old, as we were undoing the head stubs, which are an allen headed bolt, we stripped one, we tryed to remove it with a impact wrench and have had no luck, we'd prefer not to drill it if we can. But does anyone know/have any good ideas on how to remove one?
any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Tom

Is the bolt in a recession? It might be tricky but you could try tak welding a rod on the head or something to extend it and give you something you can get a grip on.
